1st/Coast Clutch Inspection





1. Inspect the 1st clutch (715) and the coast clutch (712) pistons to include each piston's check valve. If the clutch piston's check valve is stuck, falls out of the piston or otherwise damaged, replace the clutch piston.

^ If the clutch steel plates are worn, damaged or severely discolored, replace the plates as a complete set.
^ If the clutch fiber plates are worn, damaged, or discolored, replace the plates as a complete set.
^ If the 1st clutch (701) or the coast clutch backing plate (705) is worn, damaged, or severely discolored, inspect the clutch backing plate-to-top-disc clearance, then replace the clutch-backing-plate making sure to use the correct selective size backing plate.
